what i am doing wrong or how can this be fixed?

i compiled compiled coq and ssreflect myself (from recent downloads),
and am using Ubuntu 10.4

At a time, Coq was not properly installing its interface files. In
particular, the /usr/lib/coq/ide directory was more or less empty. It
should at least contain coqide.cmi, coqide.cmx, ide.a, ide.cma,
ide.cmxa. (Your error is caused by coqide.cmi missing.)

What I usually do on Ubuntu computers is to download the source package
(apt-get source coqide), compile it (fakeroot debian/rules binary), then
manually copy the missing files from the source directory to the install
directory.

I do the same. I modified the nix-install scripts with the following

postInstall = ''
cp ide/*.cmi ide/ide.*a $out/lib/coq/ide/
'';
